Initiative to tackle antisemitism launches tod…

Tonight’s Premier League match with Bournemouth marks the start of our campaign to tackle antisemitism in football.

The initiative is supported by the club’s owner, Roman Abramovich – who discusses the issue in a special foreword in tonight’s matchday programme – and forms part of our ongoing inclusion work, through our Building Bridges campaign.

We are working with organisations and individuals at home and abroad – including the Holocaust Educational Trust, Jewish Museum London, Community Security Trust, Kick It Out, World Jewish Congress, Anne Frank House and Maccabi GB – to take a lead on raising awareness of antisemitism and its impact on the Jewish community and society as a whole.
